... The ESO-MIDAS system is built along lines which should allow easy integration of complex analysis algorithms as well as allowing greater flexibility in interactive use and in the creation of user specific procedures from the basic building blocks. The first design proposal for ESO-MIDAS, made late 1980, used some ideas from the UK STARLINK project for the software interface definitions. ... It consists of the following three parts, the monitor, the applications, and the interfaces. ...

It all started back in 1979 when the diskdrive manufacturer come with the bright idea to make a new transfer protocol. ... This protocol wasn't an ANSI standard, so NCR join Shugart and the ANSI committee X3T9.2 was formed. The new name for the protocol was, Small Computer Systems Interface, SCSI. ... ANSI finished the SCSI standard in 1986. SCSI-II devices was released in 1988 and was an official standard in 1994. ... SCSI is in opposite to IDE/ATA very flexible. ...

XmTel is intended for interactive remote telescope operation. It is not primarily a robotic telescope control system, but rather a "hands-on" remote telescope interface with a server that permits remote operation and robotic control by making use of INDI for command line, scripted, and and interactive operation. ... We have adapted this telescope to the Galil controllers, and the Galil driver included here will operate a wide class of telescopes with that modification. ...
